LGBTQ seniors share their stories in film 'Not Another Second'
"I didn't publicly acknowledge I was gay until I ran for Congress," one participant said. "I think I lost a lot of years," another added. "Not Another Second" will travel the country. Its first stop is at the Watermark Senior Residence in Brooklyn Heights. Watermark partnered with the LBGT senior advocacy group SAGE on this campaign. SAGE is where Pat Thomas-Martin and Paulette Martin met five years ago, and they were honored to share their story. "This was an opportunity for those who are coming behind us to understand some of the challenges that us LGBTQ seniors went through," Pat said.
